Hey everyone,
I just started using the Octane plugin for C4D, and I'm pretty new to 3d in general. Is there any way to get rid of the harsh black shadows in the direct lighting kernel? Is there any way to get direct lighting to create soft, lifelike shadows and vibrant colors like in the path tracing or PMC kernels? I already have alpha shadows and fake shadows turned on. For reference, the top image is pathtracing, and the bottom is direct lighting. Thanks!
